Outer Banks Posts

A Message From Our Owners 📣 Buffalo City Distillery will be transitioning to BCD Distillery.
We made this decision to simplify our branding and avoid threatened trademark litigation from another company. While we disagree with their claims that customers would be confused, we believe our time, energy, and resources are better spent focusing on what matters most—crafting exceptional spirits and creating memorable experiences for our guests. As we make this transition, you will begin to see the BCD Distillery name appear on our product labels, website, advertising, and throughout the distillery over the coming weeks.

The only thing changing is our name. We will continue producing the high-quality spirits you know and enjoy. And most importantly, we will continue honoring and sharing the rich history of Buffalo City and its unique connection to the Outer Banks.

Buffalo City’s story has always been bigger than a name on a bottle—it is a part of our heritage, and that heritage will remain at the heart of everything we do. We are incredibly grateful for the support of our customers, friends, and community. Thank you for being part of our journey, and we look forward to continuing to be part of your own unique Outer Banks experience for years to come.

With gratitude,
Buddy, Sharon, & The BCD Distillery Team

All JBG pearls are discounted 50% through June 30, so let's talk Tahitian pearls 🖤🩶🤍

Tahitian pearls are saltwater cultured gems grown in the black-lipped oyster of French Polynesia. Famous for their naturally dark body colors, mirror-like sheen and deep iridescence, they exhibit exotic overtones ranging from peacock green and silver to deep purple. They are the only pearls that naturally occur in shades of "black".

While perfectly round, flawless pearls are the most highly prized and valuable, they naturally occur in unique irregular shapes. Come see our spectacular selection of Tahitian pearls at unprecedented pricing ⚪️💎💜
